Today, my dad grounded me for swearing, after I read a funny comment on Youtube to my sister. The supposed swear word? "YOLO." FML
Collection
Halloween
A failed costume, stolen candy and a very real scare: Halloween, the one night when fear is allowed.
Today, my dad made a big show of sending me to my room and grounding me for a week. Not because he heard me cursing at my video game, but because I "swear like a little girl" and it embarrassed him in front of his friends. FML
Today, my mom added me on Facebook. She wrote on my wall, for the whole world to see, "Why are you swearing on the internet?! You're grounded". FML
Today, I was talking to one of my British friends online, and he told me to say "yew anchors" a few times really fast. I'm a fairly stupid person, and wasn't very focused, so I did as he said. When I finally figured what the words meant, my dad had heard and grounded me for cursing. FML
Today, my dad grounded me for not having any friends. FML
Today, my normally very modest and prissy mom came home, pissed off about something. I asked her what was wrong, but she wouldn't say, and snapped at me to "fuck off." She then grounded me for "making" her use that kind of "vile language." FML
Today, our house caught fire. While trying to help my mom get to safety, the word "fuck" accidentally escaped my mouth. Once we were safe, she said I was grounded for swearing. I'm 19. FML
Today, my parents punished me and made me wash my mouth out with soap for cursing. I'm almost 19. I said the word "Hell". FML
Today, I was playing a game with my family where we had to say the name of an actor/actress that started with a certain letter. When I said mine, my dad grounded me because he knew it was a pornstar. Now my mom is mad at my dad for watching porn too. FML
Today, my little sister asked what the noises were last night. It happened to be my dad and his girlfriend fooling around. I ended up telling her it was ghosts. Now I'm grounded by my dad who yelled at me for scaring her. I was trying to save his ass from a lot of questions. FML
Today, my dad grounded me for two weeks for profusely swearing at my misbehaving laptop. After some arguing, he actually accepted my half-joking offer to play a game of CoD over it. His condition was that if I lost, my grounding period would double. We played. He kicked my ass. FML
Feel like sharing it with the other FML users?
Thanks, your FML was submitted, and will appear in the moderation queue soon!

YOLO=You Obviously Lack Originality
cieloalicia 16
"swag" is a sweat, as well.
cieloalicia 16
*swear..
Nekogami 14
Yep. **** = regular word. "Yolo" = terrible. On a side note : yolo autocorrects to "tool" on my iPhone. I never knew that. Had to share.

YOLO = You Obviously Love Oreos

I love when people criticize the stupid sayings young people have like their generation didn't have any.
jkmartinjk 16
She could have thought it was funny in a ridiculous sort of way. As in, the person who wrote 'yolo' was such an idiot that it was hilarious.
DKjazz 20
Yolo= Young Oriental Lesbian Orgy. Shame on you for saying that in front of your sister.
laden_swallow09 35
102- You talkin' jive, turkey!
chosha_fml 27
And you see no irony in saying that while also using netspeak?
chosha_fml 27
#102 Seriously. And many are criticizing YOLO while saying wtf and LOL, while on a site called FML.
CreeperXRemix15 8
we kinda didn't have ones like yolo, which is basically saying that death is just fine with you because you only go through the pain once, then it's over. at one point, swag came around. but it was, and I'm pretty sure it still is, an acronym meaning 'secretly we are gay.' I'm sure it still means this because it was brought back by Justin Bieber. not surprisingly, people think it's cool to say it, but refuse to accept the origin because being gay is 'not cool' these days. that's one sign of no respect. I'm sure some of you just learned a lesson here and please. don't be a swag fag
Zimmington 21
114- I don't use it but, You are interpreting YOLO completely wrong it's supposed to mean to chase your dreams, live your life how you want, be happy, because you only get one and when it's over you can't go back. Given that a lot of idiots use as an excuse to do dumb shit. Swag on the other hand I hate. It was NOT brought back by Justin Beiber! Justin started saying 'Swaggy' after all his hip-hop friends started saying swag which is equally annoying as his music.

Just to let you know: many people find being referred to as 'oriental' offensive. People are Asian, objects like rugs and furniture are oriental. I hope this doesn't come off sounding bitchy, I'm genuinely just trying to spread the knowledge so people can get along better! All the best. (:
puffleprincess 7
144-lmao! 'Swag' is not an acronym. It comes from the word 'swagger,' which is an actual word & has been for a long time. Look it up. Was that comment supposed to be funny? Or "ironic?" Because I find a lot of hypocrisy in you pointing out people having 'no respect' and then using the word 'fag.'
gmian 34
Yolo is just as bad, if not worse than a swear
Brock_Dudeson 11
It's worse
shan88 14
Definitely worse
Uramonkey 11
I think the worst part of the FML is that OP thinks a YouTube comment containing the word YOLO was funny.
Yakostovian 18
The OP could have said worse. He could have unironocally said "Swag."
DDCA 24
You totally deserve it because YOLO is Carpe Diem for retards.
AngrySailor 17
111- CARPE DIZ'EM!

Saying yolo is worse than saying a swear word.
firefighter925 18
how many times are people gonna say this same statement!!!!! lol
GweedSincE84_fml 15
Until these children grow a pair and start yo think for themselves
TheGodDamnJoker 9
It's become a very popular word, and gained a lot of media. Which is why your father thought it was a swear word.
firefighter925 18
Thaaaank Yooou captain obvious haha
TourettesGuyFTW 26
It's a sad day indeed when the genius that is the Joker becomes captain obvious. Saaad day :(
ImAFaker 29
What the YOLO is wrong with you joker?
brackaman 18
The word "the" is also quite popular, with people saying it all the time. Is that a new swear word as well?
emuexport 4
You deserve it for saying that, worse than any swear words
protoasha 11
But he only read it from a YouTube comment, we don't know if he's a "swag fag" or not.
EverdreamOfMe 24
The person was just reading a comment that had the word in it. Its not like they said it on their own, and even if they did, they would not deserve to be grounded for it.
blackwolf91 13
@80. Yes they do. Anyone using either of the two terms should have the maximum legal parental discipline. And the type that liberals don't like.
imlifeless2 25
YOLO should be banned from all human vocabulary
HeadlessSparrow 20
Swag should be too.
AngrySailor 17
"like" is also a parasite on the English language. Like, you know?
botanistjessica 24
True, but like is an actual word. So that in itself holds it in a higher regard than YOLO or swag (at least in my mind)
illegalbeagle69 23
While we're throwing away words, let's also get rid of hashtag.
TourettesGuyFTW 26
And throw LOL in there too. Virile.
CobraLazerFace 21
These are all reasons you should elect me Supreme World Dictator of Everything. I promise to outlaw these acursed words and use "enhanced interrogation" methods on the fools who use them!
Auspex 8
Am I the only one who doesn't see what's wrong with these words? I mean, yeah they're annoying, but they're ultimately just words, they don't really harm anything...
HeadlessSparrow 20
This is his house, he can ground you if he wants to *in the tune of We Can't Stop by Miley Cyrus*
marcranger 29
That automatically played in my head to the tune of Lesley Gore's "It's My Party." I'll just go back to my rocker, where I can soak my dentures and yell at the kids to get off my lawn now.
aedan12 15
It's okay 95, I thought that too. *pulls up rocking chair*
UmbreonKirby 14
It's my party I can swear if I want to I can leave all swag behind Cause my friends don't swag And if they do swag Well, they're no friends of mine
olpally 33
That's just retarded... Wtf?
Warmonger_Smurf 29
And here we can observe someone with the mental capacity to think YOLO is acceptable.
olpally 33
Get the **** over it and stop being so sensitive to the "r" word. YOLO I don't find acceptable at all. Stop being a judgmental asshole.
olpally 33
And here we observe someone taking a comment too personally^^ idiot. Not directed at anyone except the op. way to sound condescending. I realize I am also, but still, chill the **** out. I never said yolo was acceptable.
olpally 33
It's the internet, this is exactly what I mean in my profile. Stop being so damn sensitive about the comments, I understand it was bad, but good god, don't get your panties in a wad like your virgin ears haven't heard that word before. No one's perfect.
Ins0mau 20
I love the irony in 9's comments here. It's hilarious.
olpally 33
I'm being sensitive also. Yeah, I don't care. Eat shit. I'm not perfect and i know it. **** off.
CharresBarkrey 16
Ugh. Can we please stop using the word "retarded?" It makes YOU look stupid for not having a better vocabulary. It's not a swear word, it's just the wrong choice of word.
graceinsheepwear 34
Yes, the correct way to word that comment would be "That's just differently abled...Wtf?"
ImAFaker 29
121- Differently abled? More like mentally disabled. You are such a retard.
BRLHP 24
OP give your dad a high five for me. Thanks.
